Why is he trying to make me feel guilty?

I talked to my stbx last night. He kept begging me to come back to him. I kept telling him that us not being together was the only way I knew to make him realize that he was wasting his life. I cared about him and I want what is best. He kept telling me how every night after work he drinks with friends from work and ends up sleeping at the riding club because he's to drunk to drive home. He kept telling me how he's working all the time so that he doesn't have to be at home and how he thinks about me all the time and cries all the time. He keeps telling me this stuff knowing that it's going to hurt me, to know that I'm hurting him. I avoided saying the word divorce last night, didn't want to get that started again. I was just to tired...but why is he telling me all this??? Why is he doing this, knowing it's going to make me feel guilty??? I hate this!!!

Is it possible for you two to get into counseling? I am a strong advocate for saving most marriages. I realize that isn't always possible, but I do know that it is always impossible if you don't try. That said, it is very difficult to move on after being in relationship fo so long. Sometimes we realize too late, we did't really want what we thought we did.

Yes, he does want you to feel guilty....AND feel sorry for him. Sometimes, mine will call to tel me he doesn't feel good, or he doesn't have $$ for gas or whatever. Hey, he left, why does he call me when he wants something? Because, he knows I'm there. He knows I'll try and help. But, no more. I'm being pooped on, that's all.

Sweetheart,..... oh honey... you are both so young. I am what 20 yrs older, and I am still struggling with those ties.
Counseling is the only option if there is LOVE. God, if I could only predict the outcome and spare us both grief. I want him to be happy, but more importantly I need ME to be happy. No one can give us that but ourselves. Sometime I long to be ALONE in this world, so I can appreciate loneliness. I am 44 and have never lived alone. Sure- there was 7 years of being a single parent, but I have never experienced loneness. I need to do that. Sometimes, sweetie, we have to go back unto ourselves to find inner strength for life. without a man, a best friend or family member. Sometime we just have to find inner strength to overcome life's barriers. It makes us human and it makes us more apathetic to others. We all have our struggles, pain and hope. Hope is the key, but you have to find it within your own heart and person. It doesn't come from a man, or affection, or accolades- it comes from within, it is self respect.

Hi all! This is for those of you that have or have had the same neurologist for 4 years or more. I have been with mine now since 2009. He is one of the best movement disorder secialists in the midwest. I know he is extremely busy on the lecture circuit now and in fact not taking new patients there is a huge waiting list for him. BUT.... I feel like my visits are not what they use to be. He...
